Store Closing

We are in the process of closing down our store and are no longer accepting new orders on our site. We do have some items left in inventory that we are selling at deep discounts. They are available at our Amazon store. These orders will be fulfilled by Amazon.com. Thank you for your support.

Way back in 2002, I launched SquareSound as a simple resource for fans of Final Fantasy and other SquareSoft / Square Enix music to find, arrange, and share sheet music and other arrangements. The site has gone through many iterations since than and has seen its share of ups and downs. Today I’m writing to let you know that I’ve made the difficult decision to return SquareSound to those humble roots. Why and what does this mean? Read on.

Why?

There are many reasons, but the primary reason is because I just don’t have the time and interest I once had. I have two young kids and a demanding job and they keep me very occupied these days.

What will be changing?

Site redesign – I’m working on a redesign that will dramatically simplify the site. No more slow/weighty CMS systems with the cumbersome (and often unreliable) arrangement download system. We’re going back to straight HTML and a simple static site. It will feature our full arrangement archive (with all links checked and verified) and little else. We will still be accepting new arrangements and encourage musicians to keep submitting.

Store closing – I’m shutting down our store effective today. All current orders will have been fulfilled but we aren’t accepting any new orders. We do still have some inventory that we are selling at heavy discounts. We’re relying on Amazon.com to fulfill the rest of our orders, so if you want to see what we have, check out our Amazon store.

As for a timeline, I hesitate to give one because it depends on when I have the time to do it. I would expect to see the new design in place in 1-2 months. Thank you for your continued support! Feel free to contact us with any questions.

It’s that time of year again! The holidays are upon us and SquareSound is celebrating with sale pricing up to 33% off on some of our most popular sheet music books. These prices only run through the end of December January, so be sure to take advantage of them!Read more →

Around the time of our last redesign, we posted an article seeking a few talented individuals to help SquareSound grow. We received quite a bit of interest, but unfortunately, the timing and some other factors weren’t well-planned on our end. We are now better prepared to handle this and would like to move forward with these plans. We’re still looking for writers, arrangers, pianists, community leaders, and translators. If you expressed interest in the past, we are still interested in hearing from you and promise to offer more concrete details this time. If we haven’t heard from you, now is the time to reach out! Are you interested in helping out at one of the largest sites devoted to game music on the internet? If so, read on to find out more!

We’ve implemented a new affiliate program at SquareSound that allows you to earn money by linking to us from your website, blog, Youtube video, social media page, or wherever you can publicize a link. If a user clicks on your affiliate link and makes a purchase within seven days, you will earn at least 7% commission on the subtotal of that sale. This is one of the highest commission rates in the industry.

We’ve just completed another overhaul to SquareSound and we’re excited to present it to you today. This time, the update is fairly significant on the backend, but remains a minor update in terms of functionality. So what’s new? Read on to find out.

Today, we’ve gone through our entire catalog of sheet music books and reduced pricing by up to 25%. In addition, we’ve lowered shipping costs, which now start at only $3.50 for United States orders! Still not enough savings for you? Instead of having to spend at least $100 to earn free ground shipping, we’ve cut the threshold to $50. All US orders over $50 will now be shipped for free! We appreciate your business!Read more →

We’ve received shipment of the Final Fantasy XII Piano Collections Sheet Music and have begun shipping orders. If you’ve pre-ordered, you should have received your order completed email this morning and should receive your tracking number by tomorrow morning at the latest. This is a brilliant collection of advanced piano arrangements from Final Fantasy XII. We hope you enjoy it as much as we do!

Yes, only about a year has passed since we last redesigned SquareSound, but based on user feedback and my own experience, I’ve decided that it was time to give SquareSound.com another facelift. While I was fairly pleased with the previous design overall, I found that the page was a bit heavy on load times and became a bit of a pain to maintain. I hope you’ll find this new design a little easier on the eyes and hopefully easier to use. Read on to find out what has changed on the site and what it means to you.
